Fleet Action scale minis?

[phoenixhawk]

Does anyone use these for ACTA games? I have several of them and it would be nice to use them. I know Mongoose allows you to use them, but does anyone use them in their regular games?

Thanks,

Chris

I'm collecting the Fleet Action scale. I know several other forum members who game with them too,
I also collect the Mongoose models too. 8)

Yup

That page is by now way, way out of date, on almost all fleets (and I have a couple of completely new fleets since then).

you can barely see Tanks EA they are that tiny....

I really hope MG make a full scale planet killer :twisted:

I assume by that you mean B5Wars scale.... if they made a FULL scale planet killer it could be a bit expensive :lol:

as to FA yes I have some. I use B5wars (mongoose scale) for most ships but I use FA for the smaller ones like Olympus and Tethys. And I always used FA scale fighters even for B5Wars (even in normal B5wars the 'big' fighters were supposed to represent flights of up to six so it seemed sensible to use the FA ones

Actually a full-scale VPK would be sub-microscopic, since the original was just a collection of pixels and some electronic data 8)

EDIT: Another sarcastic comment comes to mind...
[Father Ted] THAT Vorlon Planet Killer is very very small, but THAT Vorlon Planet Killer is far far away...[/Father Ted]

Yeah, we have done that joke quite a bit in the office about FA scale

Yes, but I thought the letters 'FA' were used enough in this thread, so I used BRO instead 8)

I use FA. I have a lot of FA, enough for each fleet. I have a few larger scale too.

I like the fact that tghe FA minis are in scale with one another. They also make it easier to hand big battles.

I have loads of FA, much better for close in manouvering!
